“We have a social responsibility and moral obligation to help others.”
Although, starting a business is not a child’s play but we made it one. Our Yuvakriti team which comprises of our supportive teachers and industrious students bridges the gap between our dreams and the reality. Our objective is to create more employment opportunities for everyone, using eco-friendly techniques and to infuse leadership & entrepreneurial skills in our students. Our team manufactures a plethora of things like key chains, earrings, candles, rakhis, envelopes, tiara bands, wall hangings, air purifier plants etc. We use waste like recycled paper which is recycled in our school, compost is one of our products which we make with vegetable & fruit peels etc. Prices are reasonable to create a large customer base, as we are buying raw materials in bulk.
Under Swachh Bharat, our school has installed Sanitary Napkin Incinerator which was funded by Yuvakriti.
The students of Navjyoti Foundation have participated in a workshop on 25th October. Creative skills were developed and refreshment & transportation expenses were borne by Yuvakriti. Akhil Bhartiya Netrheen Sangh is an organization of blind students who are taught Yoga by our Yoga artist group and all costs relating to transportation and refreshment were incurred by Yuvakriti. As much as around 20% of our profits are kept aside for the upliftment of an organization called “UTSAH”. It is an initiative taken by our school for the disabled students in the school itself. We have decided to utilize our profits optimally. We are planning to donate 30% for providing textbooks to economically weaker sections and 20% is for the reinvestment purpose.
Our team has innovated another product – a pouch made of discarded newspapers, to be launched next year. We are also gearing up to participate in forthcoming Maker’s Fest in Ahmedabad, Gujarat and meerut. We participated in this fest the previous year as well.

PROFITABILITY OF BUSINESS
“We have a social responsibility and moral obligation to help others.”
Our products have been very cost effective as
we have mostly used the recycled paper produced in the school itself. We
purchased the raw material in bulk from the wholesale market to cut costs, we
saved the labour cost as every student was involved and given task to make one
or more than one product. The pico of stoles and scarves was done by one of our
student’s mother who charged nominal amount for her service and got more
employment opportunity.
To increase our sale, we applied varied ideas
like:-
·
Buy three get one free.
·
Bumper sale in last two hours of sale.
·
Offering discounts on items that could not be
sold.
·
Offering end season sale discounts.
·
Diversified business items to bring newness.
·
Sold the items on reasonable prices so that we
could attract more customers.
·
Met the demands of the items that were in sale
the most.
Yuvakriti
has spent 20% of its profit in installing a Sanitary Napkin Incinerator in
school to promote good hygiene and contribute in Swachh Bharat Campaign.
The school arranged a workshop for the
students of Navjyoti Foundation on 25 October to extend the art skills. All
expenses related to refreshment and transportation was borne by Yuvakriti.
DISTRIBUTION OF
PROFIT
·
Social Cause:-The school’s Yoga Artist group has
shouldered the social responsibility of teaching yoga to the blind students of
Akhil Bhartiya Netrheen Sangh which has infused qualities of confidence and
self-reliance in those students. ‘UTSAH’-an initiative taken by school to bring disabled
children into the mainstream is extended the help by giving 20% of profit of
Yuvakriti. Due to school’s efforts, these students have won many awards and
accolades and Yuvakriti has incurred and is incurring all costs related to
transport and refreshment of these students to help them live a life of self
respect and dignity.
·
Upliftment of EWS:-It’s our plan to donate 30% of our
profit by providing textbooks to students belonging to economically weaker
section of society.
·
Others:-5% is kept for re-investment purpose.
TRANSPORT AND REFRESHMENT RECEIPT
While
working out on so many products, our students have become so imaginative and
creative that they came out with a wonderful product -‘a pouch made of
discarded newspapers’ which was liked and appreciated by everyone as it was
eco-friendly, cheap and had a unique quality, we would be launching it next
year and would extend this art of making pouch to our students as well as to society
to encourage them to use eco-friendly mode and be creative in utilizing the
ordinary things like old newspapers.
We got a
second opportunity to participate in Maker’s Fest in Ahmedabad, Gujarat and
Meerut after being selected on the basis of creativity and innovation and
eco-friendly products. It is an international platform where craftsmen from all
over the world are selected to participate and display their products. It was
the result of our dedicated, sincere and noble efforts that we got this
opportunity which instilled a new kind of confidence in our students and us and
motivated us to do our work with new zeal and zest.
